Lots more, but I'm busy right now.

When my father was 80, he had a hip replaced, under Bozomacare I
suspect they would not do so because an 80 yr old prob would not live
long enough to get any use out of it. By his 86th b-day, he had worn
the first replacement out (too much adventure travel like hiking up
volcanoes etc) and had it replaced again which I am sure BozomaCare
would not do. By 88 he suddenly developed Parkinsons for which I
suspect Bozomacare would do very little. His solution to keep up his
ability to walk as long as possible was to literally take up a lot
more walking. By 91, had to use a walker but still goes a pretty good
distance every day. At 92, sudden heart probs and I suspect a
BozomaCare death panel would sentence him to death. Without
BozomaCare, he will prob live to be 100. His health care is a combo
of VA, private and medicare. He has some sort of pvt insurance that
very happily pays him to stay out of a nursing home. This was a
nursing home policy my parents bought about 20 yrs ago but I do not
have all the details. The policy pays if they go into a nursing home
but also pays somehow if they stay out of one when they have probs.
